    Can somebody ask Phil a question at this gig.

    What is the penalty for hiding information for the pre election economic and fiscal update?

      I don’t know, but John Whitehead is probably about to find out, maybe he’s a better person to ask?

    sweetd, why don’t you go along and ask him yourself? Or are you all type and no voicebox?

    Auckland DL has also confirmed an event for next Wednesday, 11th March, more info at the Facebook group, and hopefully a post up here on it from lprent soon 🙂

    [lprent: sure will be, as soon as I log onto facebook for the very first time (sigh)]

    I wasn’t aware of the Auckland event till you mentioned it. Thanks. I don’t live in Chch.

    Yep sweetd, anyone can ask questions at the DL CHCH event. My expectations are that anyone who fronts should be able to take the toughest of questions. All I demand is that there is a level of politeness and conviviality such that I would invite my Oma (grandmother) along. And we need snappy, succint questions. Make yourself known to me and I’ll make sure you get your question in as we are time poor.

    Cheers,

    D

    Would rather question Phil Goff rather than some fill in for the Auckland event. Too bad. Is he coming to an Auckland DL event soon? Or would it be better to address any questions to Andrew Little?

    Can I add another question?

    What is the role and responsibility of the opposition spokesperson on interfaith issues?, and how does the treatment of the exclusive brethren fit into this role?

    sweetd, I think we will probably be getting Phil Goff along in Auckland sometime, but probably not for a few months yet.

    Why don’t you email him in the meantime?

    Yep, sweetd, looks like Julie can sort you out to question Phil Goff at an Auckland DL event.

    Looks like a good question to spark a thoughtful answer and discussion to me.

    Interesting, at CHCH mostly people asked him foreign affairs type questions.
